Black leather pants, a leather jacket, a crop top and combat boots make for the ideal recipe for a grunge rock-and-roll outfit. I absolutely adore the all-black look of this ensemble, minus the boots.
I took inspiration for this outfit from Philipp Plein fall 2015 ready-to-wear collection, specifically look 17. Plein’s collection is my favorite out of all the fashion shows. He flawlessly uses black snake skin, fur jerseys, skin tight black jumpsuits and elegant long fitted dresses to make for an edgy style. I mostly stuck within the same color scale as Plein’s collection but I decided to wear brown combat boots instead to add in a different color.
I chose to wear high-waisted black leather pants instead of the low-rise pants shown in look 17 to cover more skin for a more modest look. The jacket could also be worn tied around the waist to hide more skin if desired. The dark brown combat boots still correlate with the black color scale because it is a darker shade of brown.
If you are looking to add more accessories to this outfit, there are a couple of options. For an even more grunge look, try adding a black spiral choker or spiked bracelets. A black rimmed hat would be a great addition to this outfit as well. For edgier make up, try a dark red lip; my favorite red lipstick is by Estée Lauder. Dark gray or black smokey eyeshadow will also give off the same effect.
